The Art+Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon @ CMU is an all-day, walk-in event. Take part in this free edit-a-thon featuring introductory tutorials for the beginner Wikipedian, reference materials, and refreshments. Our specific focus will be adding and enhancing articles on women and female-identified artists working at the intersection of art + technology (though no one will be discouraged from researching women working in other art-related fields).

**This workshop is currently full, but please email studio-info@andrew.cmu.edu if you would like to be placed on a waitlist.**

The Design and Alterity event series is made possible in part through the generous support of the Carnegie Mellon University College of Fine Arts, the Carnegie Mellon School of Art, and in part by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, state agency funded by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
